APPLICATION OF LINEAR PROGRAMMING TECHNIQUES IN PRODUCTION PLANNING

A LINEAR PROGRAMMING MODEL FOR PRODUCTION PLANNING: AN IRANIAN CASE STUDY IN CEMENT

Production planning and inventory control efforts are known as the driving engines of manufacturing systems. The manufacturers, competing to survive in these days’ competitive business environment, aim to satisfy customers’ needs. This requires a precise production plan throughout the supply chain. These days, because of the increasing costs of production and distribution, especially in the cem...

Application of Multi Objective Fuzzy Linear Programming in Supply Production Planning Problem

The purpose of this paper is establish the usefulness of newly formed modified s-curve membership function in a limited supply production planning problem with continuous variables. In this respect fuzzy parameters of linear programming are modeled by non-linear membership function such as scurve function. This paper begins with introduction and construction of modified s-curve membership funct...

Fuzzy Goal Programming Techniques for Production Planning in Industry

This paper presents the production planning problem in industry with different operational constraints, including strategic aim of the company, profit goal, limit on finishing and furnace hours needed, cups manufactured with target values being imprecise in nature. The fuzzy goal programming techniques is applied to maximize the production capacity, maximize the profit, minimize the extra finis...

A Single Machine Capacitated Production Planning Problem Under Uncertainty: A Grey Linear Programming Approach

The production planning is an important problem in most of manufacturing systems in practice. Unlike many researches existing in literature, this problem encounters with great uncertainties in parameters and input data. In this paper, a single machine capacitated production planning problem is considered and a linear programming formulation is presented. The production costs are assumed to be u...

Application of fuzzy multi-objective linear programming to aggregate production planning

This study develops a fuzzy multi-objective linear programming (FMOLP) model for solving the multi-product aggregate production planning (APP) decision problem in a fuzzy environment. The proposed model attempts to minimize total production costs, carrying and backordering costs and rates of changes in labor levels considering inventory level, labor levels, capacity, warehouse space and the tim...
